The contributions of the Haverford Township Free Library to our community neighborhoods are too numerous to list. Because HTFL is such an established institution, people often take for granted that we will always exist in the manner so accustomed. Here in Haverford Township as in most communities, the library agency must compete with many other essential State and Municipal services for funding. Although the library does collect a percentage of revenue from fundraising activity, private sources, or grants, these revenue streams can never (nor should they) fully support the many functions performed by HTFL. Despite the fact that we are involved in a challenging economic period of time, we are set to continue to act in a fiscally responsible manner as we meet our allocated budgets. HTFL will strive to maintain the many areas of service that we have provided in the past.
